The proposed mixture model in this paper is restricted to a two component distribution. Then, we provide descriptions on the program structure of the package and some discussion on appropriate usage with respect to the support of the models. Arc tan model has been proposed to model a specific Norwegian insurance loss data [ 32 ]. Yang MH, Ahuja N. Many reasons in which the data is found to be crucial and recorded by insurance companies or insurance service agencies, among others, to model their future financial obligations. The skewed normal and skewed t distributions have been studied in fitting insurance claims data [ 25 ]. Modeling with Weibull-Pareto Models.

Psarakis S, Panaretoes J. The skew-normal and skew- t distributions version 1.
TXT Click here for additional data file. Table 1 Support for models in gendist package.
gedist The P-P plots are produced by the following command:. The data consist of observations related to major North American rivers. Driving the Information Revolution.
Gendist: An R Package for Generated Probability Distribution Models
Between the two models, the skew Logistic-Logistic distribution gives a lower negative log likelihood value, that is, a value of Whenever this is the case, numerical methods are used.
Assuming pre-installation of both packages the data S1 Data can be obtained and sorted as follows:. Feldmann A, Whitt W. Empirical values are plotted against two theoretical distributions, that is, the skew Logistic-Logistic distribution and the skew Normal-Normal distribution.
Gendist: An R Package for Generated Probability Distribution Models
Composite models have also been applied to some simulated data belong to a particular class of distribution. Therefore, we encourage other scientists to furnish the package with additional models in their respective field or send suggestion for further improvement.
Azzalini proposed a new class of distributions with an underlying normal distribution [ 49 ]. However, both must be defined on the same range dimension. Value-at-Risk for folded normal black and folded t red distributions. Users can easily create any specific model by specifying the parent distributions along with their parameters.
CRAN - Package gendist
Folded and log-folded-t distributions as models for insurance loss data. Analysis of Application on Composite Model Fig 2 shows the pdf plots of the composite Gendizt models with varying parameter values.
Another advantage is that the users have the option to write their own function to serve as the parent distributions. In general, the pdf of ggendist mixture model is given by.

In addition to the above, various applications of mixture model can be found in the literature for other area of studies. A logistic mixture distribution model for polychotomous item responses. On the skew Laplace distribution. Thus, implementation of these functions in gendist are done via numerical methods. Fig 2 shows the pdf plots of the composite Weibull-Gamma models with varying parameter values.
Further details of the gendist package can be found at http: These models are extensively used in the literature and gendizt R functions provided here are flexible enough to accommodate various univariate distributions found in other R packages. Table 1 describes a proper selection for the parent distribution corresponding to each gendiat with respect to its support.
This article has been gsndist. Folded and log-folded-t distributions as models for insurance loss data. The suitability of the parent distributions for the models must be checked by the user.
In this example, folded t distribution consistently show a lower VaR value than the normal distribution. All these authors employed the well known Danish fire insurance data to measure their model performance.
